The Turkish government has fired a number of high-ranking security officials as public anger at a recent bombing in the capital of Ankara that killed 97 people and left hundreds more injured continues to grow.
A bomb attack ripped through a crowd of demonstrators in the Turkish capital of Ankara as they marched in opposition to renewed violence between the Turkish government and a Kurdish militia.
The government of Turkey has waded deeper into the complex battlefields of Iraq and Syria, sending its warplanes and ground troops to attack positions of both the Islamic State and the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, a Kurdish militant group labeled terrorists by the Turkish government and its Western allies.
